Winning Design - Spirit Wear Socks

Last week Longfellow students, teachers, and parents voted on their favorite sock design to be sold as part of our spirit wear. Thank you to all who voted! It was very close, but Design D came out on top with 27% of the votes, followed by Design B with 26%, Design A with 25%, and Design C with 22%. Hold any disappointment at bay as we hope to eventually sell all the designs in the future.

Look out for the availability of online pre-ordering in the coming week to make sure you get a pair!
